Super Saturday

End Violence Against Women (EVAW) International Day on Friday 25th November 2016.

Forms of violence:

Physical

Sexual

Psychological.

It is important to note what this movement is about. Ending violence against women but it is more than that. It is a situation that has been ongoing but has been stimulated in different forms such as the Maria da Penha tribulation (http://www.unwomen.org/en/news/stories/2011/8/maria-da-penha-law-a-name-that-changed-society). Which in the end turned out to be an extraordinary movement for the rights of all women in society. Briefly explaining what happened; Maria was in a relationship with her husband who tried to electrocute her after already shooting her in sleep. It is said that the new Law that has been unforced since this incident has only been applies/used in larger cities. Unfortunately; not all woman are as lucky as to survive these attacks and even 2016 there are still cases of violence towards woman. According to World Health Organisation, 1 in 3 woman world wide are estimated to have experience some sort of violence.

But it is important to note that it is not only in relationships in general where these acts of violence occurs. In some cultures it is said that men are superior to woman and always will be.

Rape.

Violence.

Death.

Women.

Equal?

Decide for yourself. What is going to be your action for today? Are you going to read one of the links above? Learn something new today and keep yourself aware of what is going on around the world. Some of the articles mentioned have provoked others to arise. Such as violence towards woman in Brazil and Kenya even leading onto Women and children.

Become a percentage wiser than you were yesterday.

Throwback Thursday

Today Reflect Video: SOSMedia TV... Media.. LET'S REFLECT. SOSMedia was creating to bring forth the benefits and drawbacks of social media. have you ever wondered, seriously wondered: Are you making YOUR dreams a reality or WATCHING the reality of someone else's DREAM?So what is meant by that, well; it's always easy to jump on Snapchat and see what Billy Jean's cousin is up to (because let's face it only a small percentage of us ONLY add people on snapchat that we know, most of us get added and just back with the attitude of 'let's see what this stranger is doing today?' But honestly think of it this way, what are you HONESTLY contributing to your own personal development, making yourself a better person, making a difference to your future, contributing to making your future how you desire to be. I know this is just words right? Let's reflect a little more. Let's give ourselves an example: You want to be a Fireman. Tell me, honestly, how have you contributed to making that a reality. Have you allowed yourself to get distracted, regardless as to whether you're doing a course or just finding different methods to approach this career path. There is so much you could be doing to make this a reality but only you can answer this. SOSMedia tells you that you need to stop caring so much about how much of a following you have 'this picture only got 7 likes, I'm deleting it' - How many times have you heard this? Think about it.

Wise Up Wednesday

Another week, another Wednesday!

Time really is flying by now, the weekend is within reaching distance but before you know it we’ll be back to work, school, college or university.

Despite our busy life styles and constant craving for the weekend we still find a lot of time to sit back and relax…or maybe that’s just me? TV is always my go to point of call whenever I have spare time, it’s just so easy to switch the television on and scroll through copious amounts of channels before something catches my attention.

So, what normally catches your attention? I can imagine it is something that is easy to follow and won’t require you knowing a back story to the rest of the programme? But do you ever watch something on TV, walk away and then think ‘what did I actually gain from that?’ very often the answer will be ‘nothing’.

This poses a vital question: in what way is TV actually helping you? Very often the things we watch are all exaggerated versions of anything that would ever occur in reality, this therefore distorts our perception of certain aspects of life. Don’t get me wrong, there are plenty of TV programmes that are extremely informative, those are the good ones. Just keep in mind next time that not everything you see on TV (especially reality TV programmes) is accurate, take a step back and think to yourself ‘what can I gain from this?’ and that may help you decide what to watch- use your spare time wisely!  

But don’t worry, TV isn’t all doom and gloom!! Here’s three good impacts of TV:

It enables young people to share cultural experiences with others and therefore learn important life lessons and values

News, current events and historical programming can help make young people more aware of other cultures and people.

Documentaries can help develop critical thinking about society and the world, cultural programming can open up the world of music and art for young people.

So, I guess we can say that at the end of the day it’s up to us what we want to watch, but it’s also up to us what we want to

learn from what we watch.

Motivational Monday

EyeSpeakTV's No.1 Motivational Hub.

Honestly, I don't think TV is a bad thing.

I lied. It is honestly incredible how much information we can access just by watching a box. 100 years ago we would not have been able to do anything like that. It's World Television Day! You know what that means? It's the day to celebration the existence of this magical device. But with this comes it's negative impacts. Let's dive in. Let's start off with the obvious positive? Did you know you are an amazing person? Did you know no matter what you are exposed to, or what anyone says about you, you're still an amazing person? - This isn't random. TV is the biggest platform to make you feel like the exact opposite, it is not as bad as it was maybe 2-3 years ago because now we have social media and what you see on the phone is slightly more relevant. But the amount of content on the TV that can make you feel so much smaller than you are is incredible. Examples; reality shows (showing unrealistic realities - all for the show). Now you're probably wondering, why I'm I telling you things that you already know? Well because although this might seem obvious, these are things that we know but hardly ever take into account. The news for example; supposedly the platform of worldwide updates. WRONG! Have you ever listened to the news? I'll repeat the question, Have you ever LISTENED to the news? Have you noticed that they slightly manipulate how you are going to interrupt it? For example; they never say '10 people injured' - but what they will say is 'After the horrificaccident 10 people were brutality injured and are said to have been attacked in daylight'. They want you to know the facts but they also want to develop fear. Instead of just providing facts, they secretly enclose some opinions and adjectives simply to make you think of the worst possible scenario? Have you ever wondered why they might do this? Well let's put it this way, if you are watching something that is telling you what is going on around the world, what are you going to do the next day? You're going to check again because you want to know what's going on and you want to be safe. Please if you're going to do that, don't. If you do already do that, stop. It's all fear. I'm not going to jump into the selective stories. You don't hear everything that happens, just some. There's a reason for that. I'm not going to jump into it right now. Just think about it. OF COURSE if you want to know what's going on around the world just try and find a reliable source. A source where you can find the facts and the reason and end of that.  Maybe try the Guardian or BBC? So today, make it day where you're going to try more than one source to find out the real story, what really happened. Do not stick to one source alone and do not allow yourself to be manipulated to one opinion or one side of the story. Make it the day you find out what the TV is really showing you, Television or Tel-a-lie? Don't always trust what you see on the TV.. You've heard that one before right? Maybe switch off the TV day and go for a walk. Because if you see something, chances are - if it's not interesting enough, you won't be seeing it again. And maybe just maybe, leave Towie alone and work on your dream a little bit? SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS! - What's your opinion? Monday#1 - ActionForToday: - Find one different source of information- DO NOT BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU SEE ON THE TV! Keeping Smiling & Stay Motivated. Happy Monday!

Throwback Thursday

Just a little recap.

Clue's in the name. But we're going to try this outside the norm. EyeSpeakTV has created content on YouTube, Mixcloud and Soundcloud. However; not everyone prefers to watch videos or listen to podcasts and if you are that person... You should change (just saying...).

Throwback Thursday for EyeSpeakTV is going to be the section where we discuss or simply talk a little bit more about one of the videos we have created and if you like what you read, hop onto YouTube and watch the video for yourself, and if you already have; congratulations! You're already one step closer to becoming a better, more knowledgeable person.

Now you're probably wondering, what is the point of blogging about a video that is online? Why not just promote the video? Simply because; the videos are so much more than a video. It is a movement, it has a message, a valuable message. So we are going to do this. We are going to review and elaborate on the video. Make it magical and work towards changing a life, maybe even yours :)

Thursday#1: YourActionForToday: Watch One EyeSpeakTV Video!

And remember to recap on your journey so far, because EyeSpeakTV is going to an extraordinary one... What about you?

Wise Up Wednesday

ooking for advise? Looking for knowledge? Look no further. Congratulations, you made it half way through the working week. Two more days at work, two more days in school, college or university. Whilst we go about our day to day life; we come across this one little thing. You've probably heard of it.... 'problems'. Well EyeSpeakTV is here to encourage you think about these things. Which is where Wise Up Wednesdays comes in! We want to get you thinking about all these problems you face to day to day. Now you're probably wondering; why Wednesday? Well simply because it is half way through the week meaning that whatever problems you have faced so far, you have the rest of the week to solve it/overcome it and the rest of the month to learn from it and learn how it avoid it next time round or how to deal with it.  So we welcome and introduce: Wise Up Wednesday, the advise column - providing information on social and environmental issues, answering any questions you may have or simply touching about issues that people are scared to talk about. So we are going to talk about it. Change won't happen if the conversation doesn't happen. So let's do it.  Let's talk about it. Let's create change.

Motivational Monday

EyeSpeakTV's No.1 Motivational Hub spot. As the first blog on Motivational Monday, it would only make sense to talk about Mondays, Have you ever wondered why Mondays are so hated by so many individuals? Is it because its the first day to a very long week? Or is it because the weekend is now and officially over. Here's a little something for you, I'm not going to speak about Mondays or even Motivational Mondays in that case because it has been talked about over and over. But I am going to tell you this.  I don't know who you are personally... But I know you are incredible. And you have the power to create your desired circumstance regardless as to whether you think it might be too big, or too unrealistic.  So today, this Monday. Let it be the first to many more Mondays to come but with a different attitude, a different approach but with the same smile.  Keeping Smiling & Stay Motivated.  Happy Monday!
